New article just dropped: The Official Guide To #DezNat - Deseret Nationalism *LINK IN BIO*

Article covers topics/terms essential to understanding DezNat, a movement founded by Mormon white nationalists.

This is the 1st article we will be publishing. Watch this space.
The purpose of Deseret Nationalism is to create a Mormon ethnostate, or deseretian ethnostate, made up of those from the "deseretian" ethnic group (those descended from Mormon pioneers). Ultimate desire of many to create a theodemocracy in the State of Deseret, proposed in 1849.
#DezNat is known for its hateful, racist, antisemitic, anti-feminist, anti-LGBTQ+ & other offensive content.

It is a loose online network of mostly Mormons @Ch_JesusChrist who use the hashtag.

Many were in an old Discord server together: CONTENT WARNING
#DezNat content speaks for itself:

CONTENT WARNING
Supporters of #DezNat are known to appropriate racist messages to troll other Latter-day Saints (Mormons), ex-members, and those they deem "apostates."

CW: racist language
Same energy.

CW: racist, queerphobic language
It should be noted that not all those that use the #DezNat hashtag actually support Deseret Nationalism. Many people use the hashtag when referring to or interacting with Deseret Nationalists and so CONTEXT is key before labeling someone "DezNat."
Next, we will begin releasing our research on #DezNat (Deseret Nationalist) accounts. This is the culmination of months of research. Many of the og members came from the PUA, gamergate, manosphere, and white nationalist circles.

23 May
Meet John "Jack" Jerman, 23, of Salt Lake City, UT.

Today we're exposing Jerman as a racist, homophobic & otherwise hateful Latter-day Saint (Mormon) missionary. @Ch_JesusChrist

A member of the original Discord server, some of the most vile & disturbing content comes from Jack
CONTENT WARNING

Racism, misogyny, antisemitism, slurs & references to violence such as school shootings & sexual assault. As disturbing as this content is, it's important to show examples of this person’s hateful ideology in his own words, rather than simply describing it.
Going by the name "Brother Jerman" in the Discord server this person was easy to identify as they didn't bother to use a pseudonym: his last name is Jerman

He also posted a selfie in the chat which allowed us to confirm his identity as John "Jack" Jerman of SLC, UT. #DezNat
